WWE Releases ECW Talent, Dibiase Q’s: Million Dollar Belt where & Ownership and more
-World Wrestling Entertainment has come to terms on the release of ECW Superstar Braden Walker as of August 7, 2008. WWE wishes Braden the best in all future endeavors.
-Ted DiBiase, wrestling’s “Million Dollar Man,” was one of the most recognizable grapplers of the 1980s who never was able to win a world championship.
Dibiase was asked question on who was the rightful owner of the million dollar belt and where is it today??
Where did the idea of the Million Dollar Belt come from, and where is it at today?
The idea was Vince’s (McMahon, the WWE’s owner) idea. As opposed to putting the WWE title on me, they said the Million Dollar Man and his arrogance would have his own belt, one that is worth far more than any other belt. I thought it was perfect. It had the desired effect. The belt itself, when they had it made some 20 years ago, was $40,000. The belt, my understanding is, is tucked away in a safe in Stamford (Conn., corporate home of the WWE).
